How are faster internal clocks for CPU's typically generated? I am wondering about processors such as the transputer, where the internal clock is a significant multiple of the external clock. The external clock speed can not be varied (for the transputer at least), so my first guess is that there is a PLL inside - but wouldn't that require analog circuitry? -- - Roderick
